Latkes

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds potatoes
• 1 onion
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

1. Peel and grate the potatoes and onion.
2. Place the grated potatoes and onion on a clean dish towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
3. Transfer the potatoes and onion to a large bowl and mix in the eggs, flour, and seasonings until well combined.
4. Heat a thin layer of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Spoon the potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening it out to form round patties.
6. Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
7. Remove the latkes from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off excess oil.
8. Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as sour cream, applesauce, or smoked salmon.
